Today I still feel like the most illiterate person ever to have roamed the campuses of Wellesley and Harvard, where I later transferred. I remain intimidated by all the books I haven't read, but over the years I've come to realize that being a student is a lifelong adventure. ↗

I like science fiction and physics, things like that. Planets being sucked into black holes, and the various vortexes that create possibility, and what happens on the other side of the black hole. To me it's the microcosmic study of the macrocosmic universe in man, and that's why I'm attracted to it. ↗

In my teens, I worked as an aide in my community supervising and mentoring youth in various programs and delivering lunches to needy students. ↗

Girls are more academically powerful. They make the grades, they run the student activities, they are the valedictorians. ↗
